Abstract
Aims null Apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI), the universal clinical metric of sleep apnoea severity, poorly predicts the adverse outcomes of sleep apnoea, potentially because the AHI, a frequency measure, does not adequately capture disease burden. Therefore, we sought to evaluate whether quantifying the severity of sleep apnoea by the 'hypoxic burden' would predict mortality among adults aged 40 and older. null Methods and results null The samples...
